Be real, what do you think it would take to build a car like the DeFrank Stocker or similar? And what do you think it would take to purchase a turnkey car from someone fast like Hawk or Shaul? You need just as much $$$ as if you were buying a CJ or DP. And even more if you started by doniga restoration.
The problem isn't the money, or the that they are turnkey, it is the underfactored hp. If teh cars were in line no one would care.

Not at all.Just have them factored to within the next county that's all.
Plain and simple.These cars(DP/CJ)would just be another car in S/S.The factories
wanted them to stick out and NHRA whored themselves (like they did with the FI
cars in the 90s)only it's more obvious now.If I had aA-E car I guess you could call it crying on my part.But I only have a lowly T car.Do you hear me crying about Bob's car?BTW
what make and class is your car?
Ed,
Detroit hasn't built a carbureted car since the mid 80s. So, you are wanting the class to be nostalgia Stock? EFI hardly ruined Stock. I love how you cry babies make blanket statements that don't really make any sense. One car was a run-away in the 90s, the LT-1, but there were plenty of other EFI combos that got spanked by carb cars.

Uhhhhh,you seem to agree with me after all about the point I make about correct factoring.
